Writer/director Gareth Evans (Apostle, Merantau), the mastermind behind The Raid franchise, is prepping his latest actioner, Havoc, which stars Tom Hardy (Mad Max Fury Road).
After a drug deal gone wrong, a bruised detective (Hardy) must fight his way through a criminal underworld to rescue a politician’s estranged son, while unravelling a deep web of corruption and conspiracy that ensnares his entire city.
The film also stars Timothy Olyphant (Live Free or Die Hard), Forest Whitaker (Bloodsport), Justin Cornwell (The Umbrella Academy), Luis Guzmán (Carlito’s Way), Jessie Mei Li (Last Night in Soho), Yeo Yann Yann (Wet Season), Quelin Sepulveda (Meeting Place), Sunny Pang (Headshot, The Night Comes for Us), and UFC mixed martial artist Michelle Waterson (via Variety).
Fight, stunt and action choreography are courtesy of Craig Miller (Apostle), Andrei Nazarenko (Gangs of London), Jude Poyer (Mayhem!), Andy Taylor (Furies) and Chris G.R. Webb (Killers Anonymous).
An addition to Hardy producing, Havoc is produced by Evans’ own One More One Productions, along with Severn Screen’s Ed Talfan and XYZ Films’s Aram Tertzakian.
Havoc releases on April 25, 2025. Watch the Trailer below:
Not to be confused with Havok from the Marvel comics, I take it.
Ooooh, boy. I find myself suddenly aroused.
This is going to be awesome!!!!
Right?! Luis Guzmán’s gonna be in a Gareth Evans movie. 😂 What world am I living on?
Trailer looks great. Evan know how to do action that for sure. Looks better than most Netflix movies.
Jude Poyer! I’m watching it!!
I have been waiting for so long. I’m glad it’s finally got a date.
It looks like Gareth and company are staying true to their previous work. Since Tom Hardy is a purple belt in Brazilian Jiujitsu and competes in tournaments regularly, I hope we get to see a lot of that in Havoc along with the beatings.
HELL YEAH!!!!
